We are excited to announce that Common Purpose Ireland Senior Leaders Programme has begun!

We had our first session take place at The Guinness Enterprise Centre. Our programme journey started with a focus on 'Personal Agility' where the group explored leadership and 'Embracing Differences'. It was a delight to come together with participants from Ireland and Northern Ireland.

What better way to wrap up our Leadership Programme with the EPA Ireland Ireland than in the beautiful and inspiring Glencree Centre for Peace and Reconciliation. We had a wonderful day with this EPA senior team exploring the theme of ‘Transforming Systems’ in leadership. Many thanks to the team in Glencree for hosting us, our programme partners Peak Connexxions, and the EPA for their commitment to leadership development.

On Tuesday, we had the honour of listening to Toluwani Akaehomen, Chairperson, Africa Centre Ireland, and Ahmed Hasain, CEO, Islamic Cultural Centre of Ireland, as they opened a conversation regarding the role of Cultural Intelligence (CQ) in today's Ireland. As they drew on their respective experiences, they highlighted the importance of tolerance and understanding within communities and organisations.

We are delighted to be working with EPA Ireland (Environmental Protection Agency Ireland) on a customised leadership programme, in association with Peak Connexxion Training Ltd.

Using the Common PurposeCommon Purpose ‘Immersion’ model, we brought the team to explore leadership ‘on the ground’ in two unique contexts - Camphill Kyle, part of Camphill Communities of Ireland, and Coolmine Therapeutic Community. Participants learned from the real-life challenges and successes of leaders in these environments and examined their own leadership from different vantage points.

Camphill forms part of an international movement working with people with intellectual disabilities and other kinds of special needs.

Coolmine is a drug and alcohol treatment centre providing community, day and residential services to men and women with problematic substance use and their families in Ireland.

Thank you to the teams and speakers in Camphill Kyle and Coolmine for hosting us. Laura Burke, Sinead Foskin,
Kathy Rolle, Tom Kearns, Lisa Larkin, Pauline McKeown, Fallon Dunne, Anita Harris, Conor Kearney.
